Unless the Unions appeal immediately, and win, BA flights will operate as normal.

Steve, I have not read this as yet on the news services I use so cant comment.



If the law says it is not to go ahead I wonder how many cabin staff (just to be surly) will self certify themselves off work as sick!

What I've heard was that many of the BA staff who have taken lucrative redundancy packages were allowed to vote and tried to ruin the company as 'sour grapes'.

Tom, it was "live" on BBC News and Sky News.



I still think there will be problems as who will want to risk making a booking with BA, knowing that the Union/Management are in dispute.



The legal situation was only a technicality, the majority of cabin staff will soon vote again for strike action.
